Staying HealthyNancy Lee Nelson, MPH, RNWe are living in a new time – the time of coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic. This is a time where we are forced to learn new core physical and emotional wellness routines as well as new ways of connecting despite social distancing and quarantines. We do this in an effort to thrive in the Pandemic. We are seeing amazing new caring ways we are coming together as individuals, friends, neighborhoods and as Minnesotans and Americans - caring for each other together, living the slogan “We can do this together!”It warms my heart, as I am sure it warms your hearts, when we see the number of generous loving efforts put forth by churches, synagogues, temples, care teams, neighbors, friends, businesses, health professionals, art and music groups, etc. Individuals are sewing masks and caring for those most at risk. Ford Motor and General Motors are making ventilators. Health professionals are working tirelessly. Our church is feeding the hungry and all of our souls. We are living in the midst of countless blessings lighting our way in a dark time. This Pandemic requires us to figure out individually and together what is manageable and how to deal with what feels unmanageable and beyond our control. We explore new ways to deal with the unmanageable challenges. To keep a momentum that gives us energy, we take actions that make a sweet difference to others. Each day we spend focused time on gratitude. We do all these things without denying what is real and difficult. We pray. When we live with purpose, love and kindness for others who have less or may be struggling more, we transcend our own suffering and find peace. Perhaps this is a part of the message of the Pandemic.At those times when the difficulties feel overwhelming, be gentle and compassionate with yourself. Use methods that have worked for you in the past or try something new. This is a time for self-care. Breathe. Consider some type of mindful practice such as traditional meditation. Go for a walk outdoors or focus your attention on something simple that gives peace. Talk with someone you know understands when you are feeling low. Find a quiet sweet place and pray. For this week’s “Staying Healthy,” I have compiled numerous resources and tools that include things you can do individually on your own computer/electronic device and/or with your friends or family. There are some great virtual opportunities provided to us by the arts community including stage plays, musicals, museums, and music of every kind. There are also resources where you can watch newly hatched eagles on a live DNR Minnesota cam or watch a talented parrot. There is mindfulness, breath work, meditation, yoga and tai chi chih. There is a section on dealing with feelings. All of these sources are given to us with caring. All we have to do is find what works for each of us and use it.RESOURCES & TOOLS FOR STAYING HEALTHYMUSIC, MUSICALS STAGE SHOWSLondon Theater.
